20% discount on curated culture experience!

Hi All,
I want to share some exciting news — and extend an invitation to you and your team.
Building upon our 27-year legacy of helping leaders build and sustain strong organizational cultures, Gagen MacDonald has assumed a key sponsorship role that enables me to share our discount with all of my WPO sisters! It’s starting with a three-day Fellowship: Masterclass a powerful and transformative three-day, hands on experience followed by a 12-month coaching community. This one-year program is designed to equip and enable you and your team with the knowledge and tools to transform workplace culture and learn from each other.
From November 3-5, 2025, this community of senior leaders will gather in beautiful Lake Geneva, WI at the Grand Geneva Resort and Spa, close to both Chicago and Milwaukee airports, to learn from Culture Pioneers, participate in candid peer dialogues, and engage in collaborative working sessions at the nearby, scenic MaryBud Farm (with an option to partake in leadership building exercises with the farm’s horses). Equally important is the opportunity to unplug, recharge, and build a network of like-minded souls.
Masterclass registration includes the three-day event at the Grand Geneva, your lodging (while available) and food there for three nights, plus four virtual events in 2026 and access to a 12-month virtual peer-to-peer coaching community, to support and learn from each other as you implement an individualized culture roadmap built during the Masterclass.
As a sponsor of the event, we’re able to extend a special friend of the firm-only rate of $5,800 (a 20% discount) using the code GAGEN. Also, WPO members can pay 50% now and 50% in January if it helps to split your payment. Just email info@experiencethefellowship.com so that they can help with that.
The cutoff date to reserve your Masterclass spot and included hotel room is Tuesday, October 7, 2025. The discounted rate for the Masterclass experience cannot be guaranteed after this date. Spots are filling up quickly, so I recommend reserving yours as soon as possible to take advantage of the discount. You can register today on Fellowship: Masterclass.
I’m honored to have been named one of the 2025 Culture Pioneers and a keynote speaker. Other long-time Gagen culture leaders will be facilitating workshops and hosting some of the 2026 events.
Our keynoters aren’t just speaking, they’ll be working with participants throughout the three days to help develop your culture roadmap:
And, while rooms last, The Fellowship will cover the cost of your lodging and food at the Grand Geneva Resort and Spa! We’re building a community so please feel free to share this offer with your teams and anyone you think would enhance the experience!
I’m also happy to answer any questions you have about this exciting opportunity.
Hope to see you there!
